No. An employer can not pay an employee half time unless the following requirements are met: 1. the employee's hours must fluctuate from week to week;
2. the employee must be salaried and be paid the same each week regardless of the number of hours that the employee works during the week;
3. the fixed amount must be sufficient to provide compensation at a regular rate not less than the legal minimum wage.
4. the employer and the employee must have a clear, mutual understanding that the employer will pay the employee the fixed weekly salary regardless of the hours worked; and
5. the employee must receive a fifty percent overtime premium in addition to the fixed weekly salary for all hours that the employee works in excess of forty during that week. If the employers often do not follow all of the requirements of this method and their employees are still owed time and one-half for all hours worked over 40 hours.

That depends on the company. Some companies don't allow overtime, while others require employees to work overtime on a regular basis. Hourly paid employees, especially fast food workers, clerks, and cashiers are usually not allowed to work overtime because the companies don't want to pay the extra money. Salaried employees (those that make a set monthly or yearly amount no matter how many hours they work) are often required to work overtime, with no extra pay for it. As far as the law goes, no, overtime is not optional. Your employer has the right to keep you at work passed 8 hours if they chose to.
